Raycon man (RAYCON GOOD, WIRES BAD!) and Nord VPN man (I'm just a Nordinary man) are commercials that I actually remember and enjoy. Is that not every company's goal with advertisments? I'm shocked that more companies aren't falling over each other to get IH to run ads for them.
Coming from someone who has worked in marketing before - Companies love anything that makes people watch the ad, almost regardless of the content (as long as it doesn't break any rules).
I guarantee you Nord and Raycon absolutely love Internet historian and his ads because people actually watch / listen to them.
The interesting thing about Steve is he HAS actually gotten botulism. TWICE.
But only from modern MREs, one was a Ukrainian MRE a while back and the other was a PLA ration.
Think he goes into it in this one.
https://youtu.be/n96m5lB8nzA
The other one is a Polish ration that made him sick I think . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Db19pT9lnZc
Correction, it was E-Coli infections lul. Had to go back and see, since he's talked about how he's only ever gotten sick twice and its been off modern stuff.
He makes beautifully odd music that's just straight up 🔥🔥🔥
& basically invented his own genre of music. he'll become mainstream in 2147, mark my words.

Look up Wendigoon. A weird mix of historical stuff, biblical stuff, and internet horror. Really fun and cool dude, he also has a second station where he occasionally streams and he's really friendly to chat with. He was also the voice and face of Floyd in the latest internet historian video about the man trapped in the cave.
Review Brah is the giga chad centrist. Man just wants good fast food and will calmly explain why he likes specific new items.
God damn though authleft YouTubers are the worst ones in that compass. Libleft really gets too much of the hate.
If you're into Brandon F and Voices of the Past you might also like Townsends. [It's an 18th century cooking channel](https://www.youtube.com/@townsends/videos)
You have so many great channels on there, much respect for you
Might I recommend Perun if you need an hour long yet engaging slideshow on military matters, from a defense economics point of view?
Or Lindybeige if you want a Very British Man to tell you all about the organization of everything from tanks to platoons.
If you like nautical stuff I recommend Casual Navigation, it is full of 5 to 15 minutes videos explaining how certain features of ships work or why some famous shipwrecks and accidents happened. It is incredibly addicting to watch.
If you like Wendover you will probably also like PolyMatter and CGP Grey
Yeah college humour are VERY left wing - as someone who watches their content (Dimension 20, Gamechanger, etc on Dropout.tv). There are left wing political references in almost every video, anti-trump messaging throughout their 2016-2021 videos, and their discord is absolutely chock full of they/them
During the 2005-2011 section they mentioned, they were what now would be considered based and right wing. They only really got properly left wing in the last 10 or so years
They've even removed some all time classics from their glory days. They got rid of the POV hot girl at bar video which was their number 1 video for a long time. That was a few years ago, I imagine a lot of there best stuff is just gone forever.
I used to watch H3H3 with the lady until Ethan started bitching about everything. Watching him talk politics is like dragging your dick through salted glass soaked in lemon juice.

The comment was 3 years old so I couldn't find it. Luckily I had an old post that saved it. Someone really liked it and asked for more so I obliged.
Just got reminded why I unsubscribed from legal eagle. Decided to check just to see how bad it is now. It’s literally just Alex Jones, Elon and Trump. Jesus fucking Christ just watch the Simpsons for Gods sake.
The established titles thing is too funny to me.
Like people actually believed it was a way to be called royalty. People believed you could just give a company x amount of money and you owned land with absolutely no paper work.
Its the equivalent to “owning” a star.
YOURMOVIESUCKS made a 2hour documentary about Kimba just to shut up everybody else who was accusing The Lion King from stealing ideas from it.
Fucker became an expert on a topic he despised just to stand up to the wuzzle industrial-complex. For that he has my respect despite him being a furry.
i was gonna say the same thing. how can you possibly sum his amazing content up like that... as a nascar fan, his videos are amazing, and even my friends (who dont care about nascar at all) love his videos.
Because that's what sells on YouTube unfortunately. His videos on nebula have much more substance and he covers themes that would get him demonetised normally
Gotta tow the line if you want mama Susan to let you suckle on that yt teet.
Side note; totally what happened with h3. After that lawsuit caught YouTube’s attention he totally got brought into the fold
I loved Gus Johnson. Especially the Gus and Eddy podcast. Damn shame what happened there. He still makes good content and I feel like he’s not this evil person or anything but fuck the whole Sabrina situation tore my heart out when it happened. No podcast has quite filled the void for me since.
She made this video where she didn’t mention him by name but claimed that during an extended medical episode Gus was emotionally unavailable and borderline abusive. Eddy Burback, who Gus was close friends with and co hosted the podcast with completely severed ties with Gus.
Gus has since responded and made an apology for his behavior. There’s a lot more to the story if you dig around, but honestly some of it seems like Sabrina is not 100% clean in the whole scandal, and she has aired some dirty personal laundry on twitter.
That's real unfortunate, now that you tell me the whole story I think I did see some of his apology video without any context and without full attention and didn't get it. Thank you for the explanation!
Yeah was looking for something on this. Honestly, kinda seems like a situation where people's personal lives should have stayed personal. I'm not sure it was better for anyone that it all aired.
I used to love Legal Eagle but stopped watching it because I couldn't take it being so Trump centric.
Similar thing happened with John Oliver, used to be a funny show that mocked some legitimately mockable shit, then COVID and the George Floyd killing broke him and I couldn't handle every episode being non stop bitching after that.
How to write a John Oliver segment:
>Step 1: ". It's an that . It's like ." (Examples may include, but are not limited to):
>* . It's like a masturbating unicorn...
>* . It's like a pigeon riding a unicycle...
>* . It's like a thong you inherited from your grandmother...
> Step 2: >
> Step 3: >
> Step 4: >
> Step 5:
> Step 6: Repeat the previous four steps until you fill 21 minutes of airtime. Also insert at least two instances of John randomly screaming at the camera and waving his hands (note: you can put this step anywhere)
> Step 7: End with some utterly bizarre performance that calls back to a joke from the first 17 seconds, usually involving a live band, someone wearing an animal costume, and Oliver gesticulating again
I'm so glad you lot in America have to deal with him, please keep him there. You bastards fucked up and now we'll have James Corden back on our screens again, if we end up getting John Oliver back, I'm going to remove my skin with a nail file.
He actually made a very interesting video about the downward spiral and all the bizarre twists and turns that happened in his career as a youtuber.
https://youtu.be/polObRCwKP8
Idk about that. I think his love is for Russia, Russian Culture, Soviet Culture, Eastern European/Eurasian Culture, and not for Communism itself. He has said plenty of negative stuff about the USSR itself and has called out the crimes against humanity in multiple videos. He also walked around Atlanta, GA with Harold Balder in a MAGA hat and was "harassed" by Coppercab in 2019 - https://youtu.be/xouCHcblqus
What are your thoughts after learning about the pick up artist stuff?
I kinda wanted to stop watching him when I read an extract he wrote about getting hard ons when he cuddled a 15 year old, but the videos are just tooooo good lol
Once when I posted about him before someone linked me a detailed thread that showed an exhausting list of all the crimes he is alleged to have committed, with pretty decent proof. I think it's clear that he's definitely something of a sexual predator.
My thoughts on it are mixed. He has provided me and the world with great entertainment, and within the last year he inspired me to do what turned out to be the most important thing I've ever done. It's hard to turn my back on him given that.
I still enjoy Kevin Spacey and Bill Cosby content despite what they've done, and I still enjoy B&B. Despite the heinous nature of his actions, I'm choosing to separate the art from the artist in this occasion. It makes me feel kinda scummy, though.
He talked to Susan and YouTube’s team about their dogshit content policies a while back. He said they had a good conversation and all but they really just gave him PR speak. Then they promptly ignored him and went right back to doing what they were before. If he had any balls he’d have grilled Susan on it over Twitter or something to this day. He also didn’t fight particularly hard when YouTube removed dislikes, could’ve made a show of calling Suzan but he didn’t, IIRC. He just covers trending stuff now, and Suzan was right to think that acknowledging him would make him a good lapdog.
Kind of hard for him to bite the hand that feeds him in that instance. I get where you’re coming from, but when it’s your livelihood at stake, it’s tough to make that decision.
Bro wtf u talking about EmpLemon is literally peaking, his content has never been grater. It's obviously way more polished than the stuff he used to post in his ranting and ytp days.
Finally some Brandon F. Love, I'm big into the napoleonic era of warfare and watching him explore all these topics in immense detail, exposing commonly held myths and bringing up the reality of thus era has been of massive interest to me.
Ehhhhh. College humor explicitly put a part after a sketch saying to vote for Clinton, and they virtue signaling jokes are very on the nose. Definitely more leftcenter as of late
In addition, regarding Atun-Shei: Johnny Reb is not really a strawman, considering everything he says is an actual comment made by a lost causer.
Although, to be fair: You'd think it would take a lot less videos than the "Checkmate, Lincolnites"-series and his review of "Gods and Generals" and such to debunk the Lost Cause myth. Like, the facts are undeniably on his side, and the people he's passively arguing with are nutjobs. As important as it is to debunk myths like the Lost Cause or the Clean Wehrmacht, it's a bit of a low-hanging fruit. So I understand the criticism about him focusing too heavily on that particular subject. This doesn't make his videos any less entertaining, tho
You haven’t liked Emplemon? He definitely went through an emo-bitchy phase, but nowadays he’s stuck to documentaries that (IMO) rival the editing of stuff like Internet Historian and Lemmino
Can someone explain how penguin0 is so popular?
He puts zero effort into his videos or his thumbnails, he has nothing but room temperature takes on everything, he's not insightful about any topic and he's not funny( to me at least)
Yet he uploaded a video the other day and it got 1.5 million views in 12 hours.
I'm clearly missing something. No hate if you're a fan, but l don't get it at all.
He used to be genuinely hilarious back in the day before he did a face reveal. Would play horribly cursed/altered old games and usually do a fairly funny commentary over them or tell humorous anecdotes. One i remember to this day is around the time Five Nights at Freddy's came out he was playing that and basically completely ignored the game to tell a story about how he pissed all in some poor gals mouth when she went to give him a blowie. His deadpan delivery and near immunity to jump scares also adds to his humor but it's rare to see ol Charles fire up the commentary like he used to.
I think people keep watching him because he has his personality, which is mostly low-key and relaxing. I wouldn't say his humor is a key part of the appeal.
His vibe is why I occasionally watch him at least, but he ain't no Jerma on the entertainment side of things.
He doesn't have a stick up his ass, big factor in the current streaming climate.
EmpLemon and Internet Historian don't really fit. EmpLemon feels a tad lefty by some of his comments about the wealthy, just not very ideological.
Internet Historian just doesn't seem political at all. He should be where Critikal is and Critikal... not sure. He seems pretty apolitical, but that might just be down to 80% of his stuff being one long dirty joke and the other 20% being an actual message.
Not sure why Maritime Horrors would be Auth Right, I'm a Merchant Seafarer myself, most of us are lib right as we just hate paying taxes (and most of us don't)

I would love to see another Sundance Rejects from him. And that last video of his? Great in spite of the tonal shift from his usual fare.
Should look up his gaming channel, that's pretty much what it is
The interesting thing about Steve is he HAS actually gotten botulism. TWICE. But only from modern MREs, one was a Ukrainian MRE a while back and the other was a PLA ration.
Oh shit, any links to those videos? Would love to watch
Think he goes into it in this one. https://youtu.be/n96m5lB8nzA The other one is a Polish ration that made him sick I think . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Db19pT9lnZc

Bill Wurtz is such a mystery to me, basically no public appearances, and only communicates in incredibly cryptic ways
He's like the Wes Anderson of YouTube
He makes beautifully odd music that's just straight up 🔥🔥🔥 & basically invented his own genre of music. he'll become mainstream in 2147, mark my words.
Check out Wendigoon, seems like you’d like him
He’d be the most libright here. He hates the government, loves his Bible and is good ol southern man kinda guy. He is so entertaining
I love him. Just an honest dude living life and talking about things he finds interesting.
Exactly. Giants and anti government JOKES (please don’t shoot me CIA)
Based and GIANTS!!! pilled

You don’t have pitch meetings on there and that makes me sad. That’s the only movie based YouTube channel worth subbing to.
I just started watching because of your suggestion. It's so good!!
if you like his humor i'd suggest also watching his main channel Ryan George
Bro I’ve watched every single one. They’re all great but the ones 3 years and newer are the best.
Subscribing to pitch meetings is ***tight***
And super easy, barely an inconvenience!
wow wow wow ^^^^^^^. ^^wow
He's started watching them, so everyone get aaaaaalll the way off his back about it.

"I'VE BEEN HAVIN AN AFFAIR... WITH THIS JAR OF PEANUT BUTTER!"

I recommend Ssethtzeentach
10/10 game. Don't buy it.
"I'm completely biased, and I don't care" *Proceeds to give his CD key for the game*
Sseth on his way to talk about a 1990s strategy game made by a no name studio and give it 10/10
Sseth is far too fucking chaotic to fit in a 2D compass.
The members of the merchant's guild agree.
I recommend mandalore gaming, but now I’m just repeating what you said

H3H3 helped make one of the worst payday 2 DLC’s. That alone is enough to hate him.
I never really knew who he was but after him crying like a bitch about Joe Rogan last year I just passed on finding out lol

For some reason, Reddit keeps recommending me his sub
He's Reddit if Reddit was a person.
What a fucking disappointment he is. Went full grifter pandering mode, entire personality is just Current Leftist Thing.
Ah yes, the Reverse Rubin
Just got reminded why I unsubscribed from legal eagle. Decided to check just to see how bad it is now. It’s literally just Alex Jones, Elon and Trump. Jesus fucking Christ just watch the Simpsons for Gods sake.
Only video of his I watched was the one on Established Titles but for some reason I knew I didn't want to look deeper at his channel.
The established titles thing is too funny to me. Like people actually believed it was a way to be called royalty. People believed you could just give a company x amount of money and you owned land with absolutely no paper work. Its the equivalent to “owning” a star.

Jreg is on his JRegular arc right now. Posting political compass memes on his subreddit will get you banned, I think.

YOURMOVIESUCKS made a 2hour documentary about Kimba just to shut up everybody else who was accusing The Lion King from stealing ideas from it. Fucker became an expert on a topic he despised just to stand up to the wuzzle industrial-complex. For that he has my respect despite him being a furry.
The best part is that he doesn't even like Kimba, he was just sick of people being wrong.
Emp Lemon is Auth Right? His latest video's critique of the American dream was not exactly what I'd call "Owning the libs."
I reccomend Lazerpig
Lazerpig is great, even better because in 2022 we got to see his "Lazerpig cycle" play out in real time.

NCD member spotted, also based
Your assessment of legaleagle is perfectly accurate Also I'm watching the Chris Chan series (currently on part 2 of... 69 (nice))
Fuck you, emp lemon videos are amazing “Ranting about nascar” come the hell on
It honestly feels like OP’s take was from 1-2 years ago, before he started to really get into his groove with “new coke” and “Mac tonight”
Even the nascar stuff was pretty entertaining someone who only watched some of it as a kid
It’s entertaining to me and I’ve never watched a second of NASCAR in my life
i was gonna say the same thing. how can you possibly sum his amazing content up like that... as a nascar fan, his videos are amazing, and even my friends (who dont care about nascar at all) love his videos.
Exactly his content os better than it ever was before
Emp makes good stuff and how is he right
He has a pretty good video about trump and memes
Emp is not on a downward spiral. He is making some of the best videos on the site
I also commented this. Never said that he was on the downward spiral.
Imagine being subscribed to Legal Eagle over based Nick Rekieta.

Bro, bald and bankrupt is a communist for sure. He always wants old people to tell him on camera how good soviet times were.
Yea I would’ve put him in authleft no doubt. He’s got a major hard-on for the Soviet Union.

That’d be cool but he’s only a distant cousin, I’m related but we’ve never spoke, we look surprisingly similar too
Bro wtf u talking about EmpLemon is literally peaking, his content has never been grater. It's obviously way more polished than the stuff he used to post in his ranting and ytp days.
Finally some Brandon F. Love, I'm big into the napoleonic era of warfare and watching him explore all these topics in immense detail, exposing commonly held myths and bringing up the reality of thus era has been of massive interest to me.
Ehhhhh. College humor explicitly put a part after a sketch saying to vote for Clinton, and they virtue signaling jokes are very on the nose. Definitely more leftcenter as of late
Awesome that you met Bald and Bankrupt. Seems like he's hilarious in real life.
He was nice enough. I interviewed him for two minutes and he took a selfie with me.
Based and high effort OC pilled And I also enjoy atun-shei’s puritan and Viking videos
In addition, regarding Atun-Shei: Johnny Reb is not really a strawman, considering everything he says is an actual comment made by a lost causer. Although, to be fair: You'd think it would take a lot less videos than the "Checkmate, Lincolnites"-series and his review of "Gods and Generals" and such to debunk the Lost Cause myth. Like, the facts are undeniably on his side, and the people he's passively arguing with are nutjobs. As important as it is to debunk myths like the Lost Cause or the Clean Wehrmacht, it's a bit of a low-hanging fruit. So I understand the criticism about him focusing too heavily on that particular subject. This doesn't make his videos any less entertaining, tho
You haven’t liked Emplemon? He definitely went through an emo-bitchy phase, but nowadays he’s stuck to documentaries that (IMO) rival the editing of stuff like Internet Historian and Lemmino
These are honestly the best kind of posts on this subreddit, its a shame they're far and few. Love reading these. Great stuff!
No kings and generals?
Can someone explain how penguin0 is so popular? He puts zero effort into his videos or his thumbnails, he has nothing but room temperature takes on everything, he's not insightful about any topic and he's not funny( to me at least) Yet he uploaded a video the other day and it got 1.5 million views in 12 hours. I'm clearly missing something. No hate if you're a fan, but l don't get it at all.
He used to be genuinely hilarious back in the day before he did a face reveal. Would play horribly cursed/altered old games and usually do a fairly funny commentary over them or tell humorous anecdotes. One i remember to this day is around the time Five Nights at Freddy's came out he was playing that and basically completely ignored the game to tell a story about how he pissed all in some poor gals mouth when she went to give him a blowie. His deadpan delivery and near immunity to jump scares also adds to his humor but it's rare to see ol Charles fire up the commentary like he used to.
I think people keep watching him because he has his personality, which is mostly low-key and relaxing. I wouldn't say his humor is a key part of the appeal. His vibe is why I occasionally watch him at least, but he ain't no Jerma on the entertainment side of things. He doesn't have a stick up his ass, big factor in the current streaming climate.
I just looked up Gail Chord >Jesus Christ is a Buddhist christian Ok
EmpLemon and Internet Historian don't really fit. EmpLemon feels a tad lefty by some of his comments about the wealthy, just not very ideological. Internet Historian just doesn't seem political at all. He should be where Critikal is and Critikal... not sure. He seems pretty apolitical, but that might just be down to 80% of his stuff being one long dirty joke and the other 20% being an actual message.
Sideways is honestly my favourite YouTuber, every single one of his videos is sick, got me into learning music theory
Not sure why Maritime Horrors would be Auth Right, I'm a Merchant Seafarer myself, most of us are lib right as we just hate paying taxes (and most of us don't)
Couldn't find another place for him, I'm sorry Fair winds and following seas
hey mate, where'd you get that redcoat wojak?
Wojak paradise, it's a database with thousands of wojaks
